In light of his public pronouncements, President Quezon expects every Filipino to sit behind the wheel, shirt rolled up to his shoulder—to guide the ship of the Commonwealth to its destined destiny. She's a very lucky choice indeed and here's wishing her the best of luck on this side of the world. I have kept the public finances in good order and have materially succeeded in introducing approved business practices in the management of public money.
That we are able to do this at all, and discover the weaknesses from which we suffer, is proof enough of the excellence of our race. These are the people who make up our middle class and should be the backbone of the body politic. I offer you the useful lifetime, devoted to self-improvement and the service of the state.

Juan Hernandez, sergeant-at-arms in the defunct senate, got into a car and drove in the direction indicated by the men. However, Quezon made things easier for the couple by making them feel completely at home. He squatted. After Quezon personally requested a place to spend the night, the couple apologetically offered their only bed.
Word spread like wildfire in the neighborhood that Manuel Quezon, in the flesh, was at the home of the elderly couple.

Imagine the embarrassment of the laborer and his good wife when they saw the then senate president coming to visit them late at night. The nocturnal visit lasted less than thirty minutes, but for the poor couple it was an event of a lifetime. It is said that he will go to any barber shop in Plaza Goiti and have the tonsial artist work on him.
When the ceremony was over, he told the barber to "charge it—till I come back." Barbers who have known him for years say the healways came back. During the Hawes-Cutting embroglio, when several lawmakers met the Mixed Mission in Hong Kong, the then Senate President found then-Rep. Once, while visiting a town in Nueva Eceja, Quezon, he sought shelter for the night in a cottage owned by a resident instead of going to the home of his rich and influential friends.

The progress we have made since the founding of the Commonwealth has fully vindicated our people's hopes and America's belief in our capacity for self-government. The railroad to Southern Luzon has been completed and the Manila Railroad's financial position has improved through the redemption of a significant portion of its outstanding bonds. The geological and soil survey of the entire country is being pushed forward to an early termination so that we can determine our agricultural capabilities and the extent of our mineral wealth.
Government business enterprises operated at a reasonable profit and built factories to meet part of the national needs. He concluded a preliminary agreement with representatives of the United States government with the proposed change. The administration strove to improve the position of every person and raise the standard of living of the worker.
The courts have delivered swift and impartial justice and have been resolutely the bulwark of the Constitution and the rights and freedoms of every human being. But the one man who deserves the greatest credit is he who has set his course as head of state for the past three years - President Manuel L. We must establish an indigenous economy based on abundance and a free and unfettered exchange of the fruits of la.
The President recently stated the urgent need of the hour when he called for the revival of the character of the Philippines. We are favored with the help of the noblest and most powerful nation in the world.

But to organize the Philippines for independent nationhood and to ensure stability and permanence. The government can simply pave the way. Individual and national progress must come through individual, collective and productive efforts. The gospel of the hour is work, laborious work, fruitful work. Let it be taught in schools and at home until it forms part of our being and stains us.
My fellow citizens, on this anniversary, let us resolutely commit ourselves to the task of making the Philippines not only a free and prosperous country, but a nation that will be the friend of other nations, a nation that will command their respect, a nation forever wedded to freedom and democracy.

Didn't our undisputed leader, President Quezon, notice after his trip to Davao and Japan, and in response to the accusation in the newspaper that these landholdings belonged to the Yes. However, devoid of other trees and plants that can only grow in other countries, the Philippines is blessed with hemp. This is exactly what had happened with regard to the Japanese rearguard companies in Davao. The old Cor.
And despite the President's assurance, most Filipinos and Americans too. But, in case of war, and since war is waged in every territory under the flag of widespread nations, Japan will have a valid excuse to send soldiers here and occupy us, because clothed under the American flag. Only without America's help can we repel the Japanese invasion. He was new to the game so he didn't know what to tell people next.
The Japanese spokesman said that what they want from the Philippines is our friendship and trade.

The library was decorated with pictures of the General and the shelves full of his choice books, including those written by him. Now that he has assumed the role of leader of a new nation, I can appreciate more than anyone else, the significance of those years of constant reading, of self-study, when he pondered the comparative merits of forms of government, of modes of culture, of economic policies of nations, which unfolded his practical mind, with his adventurous romantic passion for action. It is not too much to say, I think, that it may have been the Almighty's inscrutable purpose to make Manuel L.
Serious illness I don't think the story of the discovery of his illness is publicly known. I don't think anyone now doubts that he was really sick, but at the time his enemies on both sides of the political fence accused him of faking it. In November 1927, he and Senator Osmeflo went to Washington on a mission primarily to fight the proposed legislation curtailing Philippine autonomy.
At the suggestion of Chief Justice Taft, he made a trip to New York to submit to a full physical examination by the New York Institute of Health, the best of its kind in the United States. I accompanied him on this journey and the result of the examination was the discovery that he was suffering from tuberculosis. I waited anxiously in the reception room and when he came out I could see from his face that the illness was even more serious than first thought.
The principal invites me to the Pottinger Sanatorium in Monrovia, California, and I've asked him to make the necessary arrangements.' Shortly after his return to Washington, he left for Monrovia, requested his family to join him, which they soon did, and so began his years of solitary life, which meant mental and physical suffering for him, but which, as I said at the outset, was the Almighty's unfathomable way of preparing him for the task he now bears.

He rented a house outside the city, which, as luck would have it, was long occupied by his enemy, General Leonard Wood. Miller tells me that 1 must subject myself to complete rest and treatment for a year or more if I expect to recover. As we drove back to the fashionable Com hotel where we were staying, not a word passed between us as the moment was too full of strong emotional words.

It is a very great source of legitimate satisfaction, and we have every reason to be very happy and exultant on the nineteenth of August for our happy election to have elected him to the Presidency of the Philippine Commonwealth in 1935, for our boundless confidence in his patriotism, wisdom, sagacity and statesmanship have not been in vain. During the remaining decisive and critical epoch of the transition period, it is more that we need the able and proven leadership of the Pre.
